I know they are probably just little tourist attractions but I found them at a garage sale along with a few nonsense tourist trap ones and they look more legible.

Hi, hope you can help. I want to translate 'Jenni and Peter are great'. It's for a card so I know it's a bit silly, but I would appreciate it nonetheless.

Found this papyrus image when helping my neighbour clean out their garage. I don't believe its legit but was wanting to know if it actually said anything or it was just pseudo-egyptian.

Given that hieroglyphs don’t contain vocals (i think) i’d like to know y’alls best guesses or ideas on which to add, i’m a bit stumped.

Thank You .

Help Reading Demotic Ushabti Inscriptions

Post image
7 Upvotes

Hi! 

Could anyone familiar with Demotic help decipher the inscriptions on these ushabtis? I believe they all contain the same personal name, possibly with some additional signs.

I believe that the previously suggested reading, “Pa-di-Hemet,” is incorrect.

Possible readings include Pa-di-Mehit, Pa-sher-Mehit, Pa-di-Isis, Pa-di-Amun, or Nes-Khonsu, but none is confirmed.

Any thoughts or alternative readings would be greatly appreciated!

Many thanks!
